The raising of this Edifice
[1]
will in turn
herald the construction, in the course of successive
epochs of the Formative Age of the Faith, of several
other structures...

These Edifices will, in the shape of a far-flung arc,
and following a harmonizing style of architecture,
surround the resting-places of the Greatest Holy
Leaf, ranking as foremost among the members of
her sex in the Bahá'í Dispensation, of her Brother,
offered up as a ransom by Bahá'u'lláh for the
quickening of the world and its unification, and of
their Mother, proclaimed by Him to be His chosen
`consort in all the worlds of God'.
